Edit on B61 nuclear bomb

[edit]

I have reverted your edit on B61 nuclear bomb. You would do well to look at the Wikipedia policy for self-published sources. For ease of reading, I will copy it here:

"Anyone can create a personal web page, self-publish a book, or claim to be an expert. That is why self-published material such as books, patents, newsletters, personal websites, open wikis, personal or group blogs (as distinguished from newsblogs, above), content farms, Internet forum postings, and social media postings are largely not acceptable as sources. Self-published expert sources may be considered reliable when produced by an established subject-matter expert, whose work in the relevant field has previously been published by reliable, independent publications.[8] Exercise caution when using such sources: if the information in question is suitable for inclusion, someone else will probably have published it in independent, reliable sources.[9] Never use self-published sources as third-party sources about living people, even if the author is an expert, well-known professional researcher, or writer. "

I have bolded the relevant section. Kylesenior (talk) 12:57, 27 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
